Come Back to Sorrento's

Looks like Sorrento's should be re-opening soon. Fingers crossed on this one. (A fire in April 2005 burned down the building and ultimately killed owner/founder Willie DeLuca.) I was only there once, but it's a good neighborhood spot. (And hey, it might be a good choice for where in Cincinnati to eat like the Sopranos!)

The fire actually took the life of Willie's father, Enrico (who died several days after the fire). Willie died from a heart attack last October (read Paul Daugherty's column from Oct. 23 2006). Willie was bigger than liufe and was one of the real characters that made Cincinnati great. It will be wonderful to be able to sit down for a meal at Sorrento's again but it won't be the same...
